Windows 10: Camera Close Other Apps 0xA00F4243<CameraReservedByAntoherApp> 0xC00D3704

Im Using Laptop Lenovo Ideapad Y700 15-Isk, From the Factory it has Windows 10 Home 1809 and the Camera is Working fine without any issue so I can use windows hello, then I Upgraded it to Windows 10 Pro version 1903, But now my camera is like that so I can't use my Built in Camera with Default App Camera from Microsoft. With other Camera App Like Skype or Chrome Camera the Camera is Working Fine but why with Camera App from Microsoft the camera isn't Working? So I can't use Windows Hello because of that. I have tried many Ways to fix that Like Update Driver, Uninstall and Reinstall, Reset Camera App But it's not working, Please let me know if you know something

Windows 10 Camera App: "Close other apps" Error 0xA00F4243(0xC00D3704)

I recently purchased a Logitech Brio 4k UHD webcam. To test it out, I opened up the Windows Camera app, only to be met with an error message "Close other apps: It looks like another app is using the camera already. 0xA00F4243(0xC00D3704)"

I tried the basic troubleshooting steps such as reinstalling the driver, resetting the Camera app, contacting Logitech, which only resulted in escalating the case.

I also tried Finding out which app is using the webcam, using Process Explorer to determine which process is accessing the webcam, but Processor Explorer reports 0 processes using the webcam.

The webcam is somewhat functional; Windows Hello works, and the webcam is recognized by Skype, so my guess is that there is a driver compatibility issue with the latest Windows 10 update or something. Does anyone know how to resolve this error?
